CenturionPro GCM Gentle Cut Mini Bucker

This bucking machines expands on CenturionPro's vision to develop an industry-leading bucker for every type of harvest.

A scaled down version of our best selling GC1 Bucker, the GC Mini Bucker is as powerful as it is affordable. This de-budder cuts the flowers off the stem, rather than popping them off. This cutting action prevents the large crown buds from breaking apart into smaller pieces, thereby keeping the complete structure of the buds fully intact preserving the look of your flower.

The GC Mini Bucker accepts stems up to 3/8 inches in diameter and will process up to 20 pounds of fully hydrated flower per hour! Foregoing the GC1 Bucker’s blower and mighty 0.5hp motor for improved portability, the GC Mini Bucker instead benefits from a 0.25hp motor that can produce up to 3,000 cuts per minute.

In keeping with CenturionPro’s commitment to reliable, industrial, simple and efficient machines, the GC Mini Bucker is easy to set up and requires little maintenance.

Preparation for Use & Tips for Dry Bucking:

Environment Preparation

Ensure adequate space
Review electrical requirements
Have adequate bins for product transport
Cooler temperatures in processing room is beneficial

Plant Preparation

Cut main stalk
Seperate each individual stem (no 'y' junctions)
Leave 3" of stem for clearance into machine
Ensure clean angled cuts for precise feeding

Feeding

Keep prepped product stem side up for efficiency
Size the stem to fi t the ideal hole
Feed end first into machine
Use variable speed control to adjust flow

Moisture Content

Moisture content is critical for ensuring minimal damage to the flower
Flower that is too dry will fall apart
Flower that has too much moisture will compact and dent
For best results with dry bucking, moisture content should be between 12% and 14% when using a machine

Bud Consistency

Buds should be "springy"- when the flower is squeezed between two fingers it will rebound and return to its original shape
Both big and smaller stems must be pliable when bucking with a machine such as a GC or HP System
Pliable stems ensures that they fold and are stripped upon entering the bucking machine. If too brittle, they will simply break off and will not be properly stripped

Machine Speed

Slowing the machine speed for dry bucking will lead to a better result
Dry bucking at 1/2 or 1/3 of the regular speed will ensure better results
The variable speed control off ered by our HP Bucker is a great feature when bucking dry material
